Details
It is about Yefreitor Nadbit Dabayev, a 24-year-old deputy commander of a combat vehicle of the 8th motorized rifle company of the 37th separate motorized rifle brigade of the Russian Armed Forces. According to the investigation, in March 2022, he participated in the occupation of the village of Gavronshchyna, Bucha district, where he shot a man with a machine gun, stole two cars from local residents, and threatened them with weapons, demanding "confessions of involvement in the resistance movement".
